Breakouts & Acne - Cleansing Bar, Purifying Tonic, Facial Moisturiser, Mud Mask

Run the Facial Cleansing Bar under warm water, work into a creamy lather, and smooth onto wet skin in circular motions. Wait for 30 seconds, then rinse and pat dry.

Apply the Mineral Mud Mask to freshly cleansed skin. Leave to dry for 10-15 minutes before rinsing thoroughly.

Sweep the Facial Purifying Tonic over cleansed skin with a reusable cotton pad, taking care to avoid the delicate eye area and irritated or broken skin.

Follow with a thin layer of our Facial Moisturiser and tap gently to blend evenly into your skin.

Can I use the Facial Cleansing Bar alongside medicated gel?
We recommend using our Facial Cleansing Bar on its own. However, when in doubt, we recommend speaking to your doctor.

Is the Facial Cleansing Bar suitable for people with eczema?
All skin is different, but studies show that the high glycerin base and shea butter we add to our Facial Cleansing Bar leave your skin feeling healthy, hydrated and nourished but not greasy. If you’re unsure, we recommend having a chat with your dermatologist. You can also get in touch with the Carbon Theory team via email [email protected]
